I give the highest recommendation to Barbara Hammond's School of Dance! My oldest daughter danced here for 15 wonderful years and now my youngest just finished her first full year of dance. Ms. Barbara helped my oldest daughter who was shy to break out of her shell and shine and is helping my youngest daughter with channeling her abundant energy for listening and focusing. We have taken tap, ballet, and hip hop classes as well as summer camps. Dance lessons here have also helped with sensory development, balance, strength, and social skills all while having fun. We feel like we are a part of a family here, and Ms. Barbara and the instructors truly care about and want their students to enjoy class and succeed. The recitals here are so well done and make lifetime memories. Kelly Roll
My daughter just completed her 5th year of dance with Barbara Hammond and we couldn't be happier with how much she has learned and grown! We love this dance studio. Best tap training out there !!
We are about to complete our third year at BH’s and I’m so happy we found this studio! I was immediately impressed with the ballet and tap technique taught to the youngest dancers, building a solid dance foundation. My children love all of the instructors and look forward to their classes every week.
My daughter has been dancing at Barbara Hammond School of Dance for 6 years. All of the instructors are wonderful and have helped instill a love of dance and confidence in her. She also loves the friendships she’s made too! Would recommend to anyone in the Short Pump area who wants to dance!
This is an amazing dance studio! We are very thankful that we found Barbara Hammond School of Dance. My daughter has improved and learned so much in just a few months. She always enjoys dance class and enjoys Ms. Barbara’s teaching style. I am impressed with the rigorous yet gentle pace of each class.
